Description

1724-G French Colonies Ecu. Poitiers Mint. Gadoury-320, Breen-Unlisted. Le Chameau Treasure. VF Details--Environmental Damage (PCGS).

319.6 grains. Variegated pearl-gray, gunmetal, and black toning on significantly eroded surfaces from centuries spent at the bottom of the north Atlantic Ocean. Surprising sharpness of detail in places indicates this was probably a Mint State or nearly so coin when it was carried aboard Le Chameau.

PCGS# 466491.

From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from the 1725 wreck of Le Chameau; purchased from "Maurice," June 2007.
